a bout 2.5 quarts is what i believe it takes. drain as much as you can with the lower plug. then when I filled it i took the top plug out and put an catch pan under the car and filled the tranny up through where the shifter bolts, untill fluid just started to run out of the top drain hole. ohh and you can get dexron2 atf at any parts store.
